This match is scheduled to start at 01:45 PM IST (08:15 AM GMT) (07:15 PM Local Time). It will be live on Sony Ten Network and can be streamed on Sony LIV.

Preview:

Perth Scorchers will take on Brisbane Heat for the first time this season at the Docklands Stadium in Melbourne. The two teams have had a similar season with five wins from 10 games and are very much in the hunt for the knockouts. The Scorchers are currently placed fourth with 21 points, ahead of the Heat who are right behind them at fifth with 20 points.

With only 13 league matches to go, as many as five teams with five wins are separated only by four points and this game becomes crucial for both sides. A win here will take them a step closer to the playoffs but a slip-up might make things difficult and the teams will be aware of it. This sets up an exciting contest between the two sides.
